THE TIMES NEV
A Town In Two States.
Bristol, which straddles the Tennessee
and Virginia Stuto line, has two systems,
of lorn) government and belongs about
equally to two Stntes. The line between
Tennessee aud Virginia is the Center of
Main street, and It gives rise to many fun
ny scenes , as, for example, the runaway
couple need no coach and four, but, arm
iu arm, step across Main street and are
wedded. The fugitive commits n crime In
Virginia, goes to the pavement ou the
other side of the street and talks defiantly
to the oflicer on the opposite side who has
a warrant for his arrest. A misstep or too
bold disposition will .sometimes, however,
bring him to grief. Heveral'lnstances bave
occurred of a fugitive being hustled across
the line by a party prepared while lu the
act of holding such a conversation, and
they tell of a niau who defiantly perched
himself on a pile of store boxes within six
feet of the line, jeering the officers on the
other side, but, unfortuatoly for him, some
law-abiding citizens tilted the boxes, and
when he reached the ground he was in the
other State. .
A Couple Made Speechless.
Peter Lavclle and wife, waiters in a
Cincinnati diniug-room, retired to rest, a
few nights since, in good health. Next
morning Mis. Lavclle awoke and attempt
ed to speak to her husband, when she found
herself totally deprived of the power of
speech ; all efforts to articulate were una
vailing, and a physician was sent for.
The only symptoms of disease apparent
were a thick dark coating ou the tongue
and a hollow appearance of the eyef. Ou
the same afternoon Lavelle, while sitting
in front of his employer's establishment,
was observed to fall back in his chair ;
Another waiter undertook to arouBe him,
when it was found that he was unable to
speak a word. Since that time neither
man nor wife have spoken, and the physi
cians are unable to account for the loss of
speech.
Drowned by his Dog.
The Terro Haute "Express" says:
Michael McCormick, express driver, rode
his horse to the bar in the bend of the
viver, above the railroad bridge, a few days
ago. After taking the animal into the
water and washing it, ho hitched it to a
tush on the bank and went swimming.
Re was with Mr. lialdwin and bis sou,
who remained near tho shore. They ob
served that McCormick's large bulldog,
which was bathing with his master, kept
sportively climbing upon liitri as he swam,
thus pushing him under the water. They
started toward him, but he threw the dog
off, and when they called to know whether
he wanted help he shook his head. They
then started to swim back, but when they
looked soon afterward the dog was on Mc
Cormick again, and before they could as
sist him he sank and was drowned.
Lions About.
It is a dangerous thing to trifle with a
cold. A darkey preacher once told his
hearers that he thanked God "that the
devil went about as a roaring lion, seeking
whom he may devour. He might catch a
poor fellow who didn't know he was near
him ; but when he heard the roar he could
get out of the way ; if he didn't he deserved
to die." So when one hears the wheeze of
the cough which tells of the old lion, Con
sumption, lurking around, he should fly
to Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry,
and get out of the way of danger. This
preparation is well known, has been tried
nearly fifty years, and is acknowledged by
all who use it to be unsurpassed in its
soothing and healing properties. GO cents

Verdant Indeed.
Last week three verdant looking indi
viduals entered the City Hall and inquired
of a member of the Third House, ' Say,
stranger, whereabouts 'ere is the Rogues
Gallery?" "Right at the head of the
stairs, on the second floor,' remarked the
local statesman, pointing to the Governor's
room. The three inquisitive sightseers
hurried at once to the Governor's room,
where they wonderingly examined the full
length portraits of Horatio Seymour, Wm.
11. Seward, Reuben E. Fenton, George
Opdyke, IleDry Clay and several others as
specimens of New York thieves. JV. Y.

Wicked for Clergymen.
" I believe it to be all wrong and even
wioked for clergymen or other public men
to be led into giving testimonials to quack
doctors, or vile stuffs called medicines, but
when a really meritorious article is made
up of common valuable remedies known
to all, and that all physicians use and
trust in daily, we should freely commend
it. I therefore cheerfully and heartily
commend Hop Bitters for the good they
have done me and my friends, firmly be
lieving they have no equal for family use.
